Description:
For those who wish to experience an isolate part of Nepal one should make an exceptional trek to the Rolwaling valley, one of the most appealing regions of Nepal. Ensconced in the shadow of the Rolwaling Himal, this remote Himalayan valley lies on east of Dolakha in Nepal. During your whole trip, Tashi Lapcha Pass will present you the most challenging time.

This trek is commenced either from Dolakha Bazar or Barhabise. From here the trail descends steep downhill to the Tama Koshi River at Nagda. The trail then follows the Tama Koshi upstream through rhododendron and pine forests and village's peoples by low altitude races such as Brahmins, Chhetris, Newars, and Tamangs to the alpine valley watered by the Rolwaling Khola. Beyond Nagda, the trekkers spend the night at Pikhuti or walk further up to Sigati (1 hour). The Tama Koshi is crossed at Chhetchhet village beyond Gongar and the trail proceeds to Simigaon on way to the village of Beding. On reaching the Rolwaling valley, squat stone Sherpa houses replace the open wooden huts of the low altitude races and the rice-terraced hillsides give way to desolately beautiful mountains and alpine pastures. The inevitable high altitude yaks are encountered here. The people of this alpine valley are Buddhists and there are a number of well-preserved monasteries.
